A Clerihew?

(I was taught a Clerihew's rhyming scheme was aabb. Mine is abab. Is it still a clerihew?  I don't know. But it is what it is)

Large words do not a poet make.

Likewise, neither does many.

Some of the greatest rhymes I've read,

In fact, had hardly any.

Why do I keep writing these? I don''t know; it''s a compulsion of some kind. I hear them in my head so I write the down.
